Chapter 206 The Breakthrough Prize in Mathematics and the New Horizons Prize in Mathematics
The so-called gossip, there is a high probability that it will be rumored that Master Qiu has robbed so-and-so again.
A top mathematics expert even peeped at other people's mathematics results.
It is still a big mathematical conjecture such as the twin prime number conjecture.
At that time, not only will the mathematics world be full of ups and downs, but many marketing accounts may also start to take the rhythm.
Mr. Zhang Yitang's original Landau Siegel zero-point conjecture is an example. The exaggerated marketing account directly said that Mr. Zhang Yitang proved the Riemann conjecture.
The key is that these marketing numbers don't even know what Riemann's guess is.
Qiu Chengtong asked again:
"Where are you now? If you can't, just give up this project. It feels like you've been busy with other things during this time. Anyway, I only know about this project, so no outsiders should know about it."
Zhou Yi's heart warmed up, knowing that Qiu Chengtong cared about him, and said:
"The progress is relatively smooth, and there should be no problem within a month."
Qiu Chengtong said:
"They have studied this subject for many years, and with the advent of your Zhou's analytical method, others have also studied it thoroughly, so I think you should hurry up,"
Zhou Yi said:
"Good teacher Qiu, thank you."
"Thank you for what we said, come on."
After Qiu Chengtong finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yi also recognized his teacher's words very much.
People who study number theory are the smartest people in the world. Even if they are slow to analyze the Zhouyi, after more than a year, they can be considered thorough.
Maybe there will be a gushing explosion of many number theory problems in the future.
Maynard and Harold Hoofgot had just made a beginning.
Zhou Yi directly logged into arxiv, and checked the papers of Will Savin and Mark Shusterman. Zhou Yi also learned a lot about the method of finite fields.
In the 20s, the famous French mathematician Andre Weil (Andre Weil) invented a method that can accurately convert arithmetic in small number systems into integer arithmetic. This discovery incorporated the concept of finite fields into public view.
In the finite field setting, some knowledge of geometry can be used to answer questions about numbers.
This is a unique property of finite fields, and many problems have been answered by means of this geometric reformulation.
This Weil is the great mathematician who proposed Weil's conjecture. He proposed several Weil's conjectures,
It was later proved by Bernard Dwork, Alexander Grothendieck and Pierre Deligne, and there is also a Riemann conjecture of the sum function field.
He also established a good foundation for algebraic geometry, and discovered that Weil said that before Segal and Shale also introduced it into quantum mechanics, it gave a good framework for understanding the classical theory of quadratic forms.
So when Zhou Yi heard about finite fields, he already had a strong hunch that it would be the right idea.
Because Zhou Yi is also very familiar with this method, in order to understand the proof process of Kepler's conjecture, he studied it carefully.
The life experience of Wey, a big man, is also very legendary.
The degree of ups and downs is even more difficult than Zhou Yi himself.
Many great mathematicians have experienced a lot of hardships and even the safety of their lives when they were young.
Such as Alexander Grothendieck, and the 2018 Philippine Award winner Bill Carr.
Regarding Weil, he was born in Paris, studied in Paris, Rome and Göttingen, and received his doctorate in 1928.
Weil was Jewish and a conscientious rebel who fled France to Finland after the outbreak of World War II.
His autobiography corroborates a well-known anecdote: he was arrested in Finland on suspicion of espionage and was saved from being shot only because of the intervention of Rolf Nevanlina.
After the war Weil went to the U.S., taught at the University of Chicago, and then settled at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.
After reading their paper on arxiv, Zhou Yi was indeed amazed.
The understanding of Zhou's analytical method is very deep, even proficient, and the new tools created are immature, but with Zhouyi's mathematical intuition, it feels right and works.
Zhou Yi sighed:
"This idea is really tempting, and I want to steal their idea.
However, it is not impossible to prove the twin prime number conjecture from another direction. The extreme use of the sieve method and the circle method, coupled with Zhou's analytical method, may also be able to prove it.
After reading their thoughts, my thoughts became much smoother. "
For several days, Zhou Yi was studying the new combination of the sieve method, the round method and Zhou's analysis method. When eating, he would be reminded by Peony to go out to eat with Xia Xue.
Or sometimes Xia Xue would take the initiative to come to Zhou Yi's apartment to cook for Zhou Yi.
Seeing Zhou Yi's draft paper all over the floor, Xia Xue was also very helpless.
After carefully tidying up Zhouyi, he said softly:
"Brother Yi, what do you want to eat tonight?"
Zhou Yi took a pen and said while writing:
"Green pepper shredded pork or braised pork ribs are fine."
Not long after, Xia Xue simply fried a shredded pork with green peppers, and said:
"There are no ribs in the refrigerator. I will eat it tonight. I will buy some ribs tomorrow."
Not long after, Zhou Yi ate his mouth and said:
"Haha, Xue'er's skills are getting better and better."
Xia Xue gave her a jerk look, then said:
"Eat well, go to bed early tonight, and go to receive the award tomorrow, so the media and reporters don't take pictures to expose yourself like this."
Zhou Yi touched his dark beard and said:
"Hey, as long as Xue'er doesn't dislike her, I don't care what other people think."
"I know you're a poor mouther, eat quickly, and I'm going to write a paper after eating."
With a smile in Xia Xuemei's eyes, she said very gently.
Zhou Yi seemed to think of something, and asked while eating:
"How is the culture of the Great Xia Kingdom on the scientific research assistant? I haven't paid attention to it for a long time."
Xia Xue said:
"It's not bad, at least young people are happy to see the revival of our outstanding traditional culture, the national cultural confidence is rising, and the society's acceptance of Hanfu is also increasing day by day."
Zhou Yi said:
"Haven't you thought of holding some Hanfu exhibitions or activities on the scientific research assistant, or promoting some excellent traditional articles every day?"
Xia Xue said:
"It's under preparation, and I'm also going to wear Hanfu for exhibitions."
After speaking, Xia Xue looked at Zhou Yi directly, for fear that Zhou Yi would disagree.
Zhou Yi said:
"Well, then Xue'er has to prepare well."
The two chatted while eating.
After washing the dishes, after Zhou Yi sent Xia Xue to the office, he returned to the apartment and continued to work up his liver.
As for receiving the award the next day, if you get up the next day and hang your beard and wash your hair, it is considered as respect for them.
At the beginning, Schultz directly rejected the New Vision Award in Mathematics. If Zhou Yi hadn't seen that the Mathematics Breakthrough Award was worth 300 million magnesium, he would not have bothered to accept it.
This award has been established for a short time, and the gold content is a little bit inferior, but the math level is not enough, the strength is not strong enough, and you are not a star player in a certain field, and you can't get it.
Speaking of this award, Zhou Yi also knows some stories in it. The golden generation of Shangjing University said that doing mathematics is not for winning awards.
Then when they were presented with the New Horizons in Mathematics Award, they rushed to get it.
He said no, but his body was still very honest.
When they return to China, these awards will be their qualifications. At that time, with the connections of Shangjing University, there is still great hope for being an academician.
Zhou Yi thought that he would work with them in the future, and these things would be rotten in his stomach.
At any rate, Xu Chengyang and Zhang Wei are willing to come to the Yuzhou Institute for Advanced Study. The Institute has two more academicians, so why not.
The next day, Zhou Yi wore a beard, washed his hair, cooked a boiled egg, ate some bread, and drank some milk before heading to the No. [-] lecture hall of Shuimu University with a stack of materials.
Before arriving at the lecture hall, countless students, self-media and official reporters took pictures of Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi is already used to it. Every day at Shuimu University, there will be people secretly taking pictures,
There were also people who directly approached Zhou Yi for autographs or group photos.
Zhou Yi is now a walking traffic star. If there is some melon or big news, it will be the top traffic.
Traffic is money, so anyone who wants to make money will not struggle with traffic.
Zhou Yi alone does not know how many marketing accounts and self-media accounts he has supported.
Just the mathematical conjectures proved by Zhou Yi are still popularized by people.
If it hadn't been for Zhouyi's previous official announcement and the big fight for Xia Xue, I don't know how many girls would throw themselves in their arms.
Girls who are more bold and open will even forcibly hug and kiss Zhou Yi.
When he arrived at the lecture hall, Zhou Yi saw many acquaintances in the mathematics field.
"Professor Zhou, we meet again."
Many people greeted each other, and Qiu Chengtong was already talking with many people.
As one of the top figures in the mathematics world, there must be many people who want to communicate with him.
What Zhou Yi didn't expect was that Xu Chengyang also came back.
At this time Xu Chengyang said:
"Hey, I didn't expect that I'm back."
Zhou Yi was a little surprised and said:
"You are back, why don't you stay in Princeton for a few more years?"
Xu Chengyang said:
"Just come back to play, relax, and come back by the way to inquire about the domestic situation."
Zhou Yi: . .
"The Mathematics Breakthrough Award is worth 300 million dollars, and the Mathematical New Horizons Award is worth 10 dollars. Professor Zhou has made a fortune."
Xu Chengyang sighed.
Zhou Yi laughed and said:
"good."
Not long after, the host of this time has come to the stage.
Zhou Yi saw that this was Mr. Ma who was not interested in money.
Xu Chengyang on the side said:
"The 'Breakthrough Prize' was founded in 2012 by Russian billionaire Yuri Milner and his wife, Google co-founder Sergey Brin and his wife, Alibaba Group founder Mr. Ma and his wife, and Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Apple Chairman Arthur Levinson and other well-known industrialists jointly established,
It aims to recognize the research achievements of the world's top physics, mathematics and life scientists.So Mr. Ma is the host this time in Great Xia Country. "
Not long after, Mr. Ma began to read on it,
"Due to some reasons last year, we did not have the means to award the Science Breakthrough Award last year, making everyone wait for a long time. This time, it will be awarded together in 22 and 23 years."
After a while, applause broke out.
Teacher Ma took the microphone and said:
"First of all, the Mathematics Breakthrough Award was awarded. This time there are two people, one is Professor Zhou Yi from Shuimu University in Daxia, in recognition of his amazing achievements in Hilbert's No.18 question and number theory;
At the same time, I have also been acquainted with Professor Zhou Yi for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to make friends with Professor Zhou Yi because he is too busy. Today, the opportunity is in front of me, and I must grasp it well. "
"Professor Zhou please."
Not long after, Zhou Yi stepped onto the high platform, and the assistants on the side began to describe Zhou Yi's achievements in detail. After finishing speaking, Teacher Ma said:
"Today, we are not only presenting the Mathematics Breakthrough Prize to Professor Zhou Yi, but also the Mathematics New Horizons Prize."
Winning two awards at the same time, the people present couldn't help but sigh, as expected, Professor Zhou is indeed full of cards.
In terms of both the Breakthrough Award and the New Horizons Award, the New Horizons Award seems to be a subsidiary of the Breakthrough Award, but I have never heard of anyone winning both at the same time.
If Zhou Yi's achievements in mathematics were not too exaggerated, he might not have received such treatment.
Zhou Yi said simply:
"Thank you."
Then he cooperated with Teacher Ma to take pictures, and many people in the audience applauded one after another.
That was also thunderous.
After taking pictures, Teacher Ma said:
"Professor Zhou, would you like to say a few words?"
Zhou Yi said:
"Thank you for your recognition, I will continue to work hard."
After Zhouyi finished speaking, he got off the podium.
Teacher Ma then talked about the next winner of the Breakthrough Prize in Mathematics.
It was Takuro Mochizuki from Kyoto University who won the 2022 Science Breakthrough Prize-Mathematics Prize, and was also the first islander to win the Mathematics Prize for this project.
In recognition of his outstanding work in the theory of straight connection bundles on algebraic varieties (including the case of irregular singularities), but compared with Zhou Yi's achievements, it pales in comparison.
Xu Chengyang on the side said:
"If it wasn't for you, Professor Zhou, maybe this breakthrough award was won by an islander, and the island country still has some mathematical strength."
Zhou Yi said:
"Indeed, just after stepping down, Teacher Ma gave me a list. I looked at it, and besides me, there were only three Daxia people who won the awards. There were nearly [-] people. Most of them were won by Ou Mei, even the island country. three people,
Among them, there is one Physics Breakthrough Prize and one Mathematics Breakthrough Prize. The strength of the island country is still somewhat. "
Xu Chengyang said:
"I also read that Ye Jun, who won the Physics Breakthrough Award in Daxia Kingdom, graduated from Shanghai Jiaotong University, but changed his nationality in the end.
However, his strength is good, he has won many physics awards, and he holds a high position in Ugly Country, and the things he is responsible for are also very important, so it is worth digging for us.
The other two Daxia nationals who won the Mariam Mirzakhani New Frontier Award are also overseas.
Wang Hong is at UCLA, and Wang Yilin is at MIT. I don't know if they will come back. "
Zhou Yi sighed and said:
"I don't know if I can come back. I will try to recruit them back. There are too many overseas Chinese, and there are too many talented ones. To be able to recruit our Yuzhou Institute for Advanced Study is a kind of strengthening of hard power. "
Xu Chengyang said:
"That's right. A research institute and a good university cannot be supported by one person alone. This is also the reason why Mr. Qiu has recruited so many top mathematics talents to come to Shuimu University.
The Mariam Mirzakhani New Vision Award was established in 2019 to commemorate the first female Fields Medal winner who passed away in 2017—Marian Mirzakhani,
The first female Filipino winner to suffer from cancer also honors the spirit of the remaining cancer fights.
Also recognizes women mathematicians who have achieved early in their academic careers.
Recipients must be female mathematicians who have obtained a Ph.D. within the past 2 years.
Wang Hong was awarded for his research progress on the restricted conjecture, local smoothness conjecture and related issues.
He is a mathematical talent, he must be dug!
The key point is that Wang Hong graduated from Shangjing University with a bachelor's degree. If you don't dig it, you will leave it to Shangjing University. "
Zhou Yi finished listening and said:
"Then we have to dig. Wang Hong still has strength. I'll go talk to the three of them later and see if I can dig it back."
Xu Chengyang said again:
"I guess the reason why Wang Yilin won the award is that he promoted the innovative research on Loewner energy in the plane curve.
It is also a talent. "
Zhou Yi said:
"No problem, I will invite them in person. I don't know if it will work, but I will definitely give it my sincerity."
Xu Chengyang said:
"Come on God Zhou, I really want to help my hometown now."
While Zhou Yi was talking with Xu Chengyang,
The Breakthrough Prize in Physics and the Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences have also been awarded, followed by the New Horizons Prize.
When the Mariam Mirzakhani New Horizons Award was presented at the end,
The reason why Wang Hong and Wang Yilin won the award was indeed mentioned by Xu Chengyang.
Zhou Yi lamented that maybe he had to start paying attention to these young overseas scholars, otherwise he would not be able to find talents by then, and it would be difficult to communicate with Yuzhou high-level officials.
"Old Xu, if there are any outstanding overseas Chinese talents, you can recommend them to me later, and I will go digging them myself when the time comes."
Zhou Yi said suddenly.
Xu Chengyang said:
"Okay. No problem, but is the funding Yuzhou gave you really enough?"
Zhou Yi said:
"Don't worry, it's definitely enough. It's not just the Yuzhou government giving us funds, but also the central court."
Xu Chengyang said:
"That's fine."
At this time, many students from Shuimu University, Shangjing University and other universities in Beijing who participated in the award ceremony have already started posting Zhouyi award-winning videos on various social platforms.
If you don't eat this wave of traffic, you will be sorry for Professor Zhou's reputation.
If one day the author suddenly stops updating, I think everyone should know what happened to the author.Woohoo, in the core area of the poisonous circle, I am so scared to death! ! ! !
(End of this chapter)
The so-called gossip, there is a high probability that it will be rumored that Master Qiu has robbed so-and-so again.
A top mathematics expert even peeped at other people's mathematics results.
It is still a big mathematical conjecture such as the twin prime number conjecture.
At that time, not only will the mathematics world be full of ups and downs, but many marketing accounts may also start to take the rhythm.
Mr. Zhang Yitang's original Landau Siegel zero-point conjecture is an example. The exaggerated marketing account directly said that Mr. Zhang Yitang proved the Riemann conjecture.
The key is that these marketing numbers don't even know what Riemann's guess is.
Qiu Chengtong asked again:
"Where are you now? If you can't, just give up this project. It feels like you've been busy with other things during this time. Anyway, I only know about this project, so no outsiders should know about it."
Zhou Yi's heart warmed up, knowing that Qiu Chengtong cared about him, and said:
"The progress is relatively smooth, and there should be no problem within a month."
Qiu Chengtong said:
"They have studied this subject for many years, and with the advent of your Zhou's analytical method, others have also studied it thoroughly, so I think you should hurry up,"
Zhou Yi said:
"Good teacher Qiu, thank you."

People who study number theory are the smartest people in the world. Even if they are slow to analyze the Zhouyi, after more than a year, they can be considered thorough.
Maybe there will be a gushing explosion of many number theory problems in the future.
Maynard and Harold Hoofgot had just made a beginning.
Zhou Yi directly logged into arxiv, and checked the papers of Will Savin and Mark Shusterman. Zhou Yi also learned a lot about the method of finite fields.

Because Zhou Yi is also very familiar with this method, in order to understand the proof process of Kepler's conjecture, he studied it carefully.
The life experience of Wey, a big man, is also very legendary.

After reading their paper on arxiv, Zhou Yi was indeed amazed.
The understanding of Zhou's analytical method is very deep, even proficient, and the new tools created are immature, but with Zhouyi's mathematical intuition, it feels right and works.
Zhou Yi sighed:
"This idea is really tempting, and I want to steal their idea.
However, it is not impossible to prove the twin prime number conjecture from another direction. The extreme use of the sieve method and the circle method, coupled with Zhou's analytical method, may also be able to prove it.
After reading their thoughts, my thoughts became much smoother. "
For several days, Zhou Yi was studying the new combination of the sieve method, the round method and Zhou's analysis method. When eating, he would be reminded by Peony to go out to eat with Xia Xue.
Or sometimes Xia Xue would take the initiative to come to Zhou Yi's apartment to cook for Zhou Yi.

It is also a talent. "
Zhou Yi said:
"No problem, I will invite them in person. I don't know if it will work, but I will definitely give it my sincerity."
Xu Chengyang said:
"Come on God Zhou, I really want to help my hometown now."
While Zhou Yi was talking with Xu Chengyang,
The Breakthrough Prize in Physics and the Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences have also been awarded, followed by the New Horizons Prize.
When the Mariam Mirzakhani New Horizons Award was presented at the end,
The reason why Wang Hong and Wang Yilin won the award was indeed mentioned by Xu Chengyang.
Zhou Yi lamented that maybe he had to start paying attention to these young overseas scholars, otherwise he would not be able to find talents by then, and it would be difficult to communicate with Yuzhou high-level officials.
"Old Xu, if there are any outstanding overseas Chinese talents, you can recommend them to me later, and I will go digging them myself when the time comes."
Zhou Yi said suddenly.
Xu Chengyang said:
"Okay. No problem, but is the funding Yuzhou gave you really enough?"
Zhou Yi said:
"Don't worry, it's definitely enough. It's not just the Yuzhou government giving us funds, but also the central court."
Xu Chengyang said:
"That's fine."
At this time, many students from Shuimu University, Shangjing University and other universities in Beijing who participated in the award ceremony have already started posting Zhouyi award-winning videos on various social platforms.
If you don't eat this wave of traffic, you will be sorry for Professor Zhou's reputation.
If one day the author suddenly stops updating, I think everyone should know what happened to the author.Woohoo, in the core area of the poisonous circle, I am so scared to death! ! ! !
